It was two-time drug offender.

0:17.0

Every article I read from that point, it was two-time drug offender, and that's how I was labeled for so long. It got me to a point where I didn't even like, I didn't enjoy reading articles about me, even if they were deemed in a good light later, because it always was an insert or a snippet of certain things that happened in my career like that. So I kind of just not reading. How do you not

1:10.0

But through it all, I came

1:11.4

out the other side with a thriving business, an unexpected radio morning show of my own, and a

platform where I can reach millions of people and help them walk in their truth. I am now celebrating

1:22.5

every step of my journey into continuously finding my purpose, the good, the bad, and the ugly.

There's always a rainbow after the rainfalls.

Thank you for having me again. Again. Last time I had him here, I received a phone call afterwards from like your PR people. You're like, hey, oh my God, I shouldn't have said that.
